I hope the reader feels that the restored scripture reveals the commonality of the Abrahamic sects of Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. I hope the faithful and secular see a work closer to the original scripture and not bathed in the propaganda of bias and willful persuasion, a fascinating read, with verve and freshness. Unlike most scripture it has whimsy and humor for a world drowning in gravity and fear and misunderstanding. Surely laughter is part of our life and not a sin against seriousness.</i><br /><br />Wow! Thanks for the notice and for sharing these words of the interview too. I've ordered my copy as well.J. K. Gaylehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07600312868663460988noreply@blogger.com
